The event will be filled with lively music, delicious appetizers and dessert from Terri Ziter of A Vermont Table and beautiful items for bid. The live auction features trips and adventures, including one week in Tuscany, a South African safari, and a weekend in Los Angeles. Local businesses and artists have filled both the silent and live auctions with an assortment of items and gift certificates. As always, the auction features unique and original art from local painters, sculptors and potters, including Walter Slowinski, Petria Mitchell, Mallory Lake, Tim Allen and many more.

The silent auction begins at 5 p.m., and the live auction begins at 7 p.m. Admission to this event is $25 and includes a paddle number, appetizers, coffee and dessert, live music and a great time. Advance tickets are available on the RGS website, and tickets are also for sale at the door.
